About Rear Lights

Almost all bicycle rear lights use LEDs instead of filament bulbs as they are more reliable and use much less battery power, whilst also offering much higher levels of brightness. Used in flashing mode, they are very good at attracting attention from other road users. It's advisable to use at least two rear bike lights, a common configuration is one flashing and one in constant, this is highly advisable just in case one stops or becomes obscured.

In order to cycle on the road it may be a legal requirement in your country to use a light certified to a specific standard or an international equivalent. Most but not all lights sold on Wiggle are certified and labelled with a European CEN standard. Please check your country’s requirements to see if this is sufficient and if necessary contact the manufacturer to see if this light has been additionally certified for your country. Strangely some of the very best lights are not legal on their own and should be used with an additional legal backup light.

Unreliable
Such a good light but not at all reliable! Could have been a rogue, I suppose. After cycling 8 miles along a busy unlit road, safe in the knowledge that I was visible to all, only to arrive home to find that the light had turned off. After further experimentation I found that the light would turn off at the least bump. No problem! Let's just open it up and bend some of the contacts. Nope, same thing. Now waiting to go to recycling; the only cycling this light is good for.

Very bright but very leaky
Possibly the least weatherproof light I've ever bought. After only one wet ride the switch leaked and no longer works. I can now only turn the light on and off by removing the batteries and am limited to just the flashing mode (which on the plus side is very bright and visible).
My search for a durable rear light goes on!

Top Quality
Secure fixing to and bike easy on off clip. Very tough has had few drops and never came apart unlike other lights I've owned.
I cycle to work in all weathers and I've never had any issues with moisture getting into casing.

Answer:

you gain access to the battery compartment by separating the red portion to the black base. I noticed there weren't rubber seals or 'O' rings. Instead, the water is prevented from the overlap of one part to the other. So its certainly not going to like being submerged. The rubberized button doesn't look leak proof either, so I would advise to mount it upside down, ie, rubber button facing bottom. One way is to use plumber's tape and tape the sides, that ought to make it a little more water resistant.

Hi,No it isn't easy to mount this to a helmet. The mounts provided are1. a clamp to go around a seatpost2. a clamp to go arount a smaller tube such as a seat stay or rack tube3. a clip that attaches the light to a loop on a bag or belt
